A Pure Delight

5/5

From the moment we met up with the delightful rental agent, Hervé until we said our sad goodbyes our trip was a pure delight. The property was magnificent. Every morning we had coffee and croissants on the upper terrace to plan our day and every evening we had our cocktails on the same terrace to enjoy the sunset and decide where to have dinner. Roussillon is a perfect village to plan your daily excursions. Although it is popular with the tourists during the day by the time we returned each afternoon we had the place to ourselves. The rental was perfect for two couples as the bedrooms were well separated to give you privacy. There were drawers, closets with lots of hangers, a fully equipped kitchen, fabulous dishes, glasses etc. The owner checked in to see if everything was okay, a nice touch. The maid came during the middle of the visit to do a “tidy” clean. There were wonderful places to eat right in our village but other great choices were never more than a few kilometers away. The dedicated parking was a real plus. I really felt as if we were staying in a friends home. The vacation was fabulous and a PURE DELIGHT to stay in Roussillon.

Deat Donni,

We’re delighted you enjoyed your stay in our house and our village and that you felt comfortable there.

Cluttered with owners possessions

We have already sent a review to Sandra the House Manager, we are confused as to whether this is a separate review but will repeat our comments which were as follows:-

Hi Sandra, presumably this is for your review of our recent holiday, as we do not speak fluent French, it's difficult to understand.

We really enjoyed our stay in Roussillon and found the house in a good position for the town. The town itself was lovely and we enjoyed some nice meals there. However, we were a little disappointed in the house itself. John and I used the lower floor bedroom and our major problem was there was nowhere to put our clothes. There was some hanging space but no drawers for lingerie, tee shirts etc. We had to keep things in our cases, which was very inconvenient. Our daughter had the upstairs bedroom and she initially offered for us to use the large chest of drawers in her bedroom, however this could not be so because one draw was full of the owners pants and socks, another draw was full of his shirts and yet another draw full of his jumpers, this left just one draw free. Also in that bedroom there was no wardrobe to hang clothes, merely a rail in the bathroom and even that area was full of his clothes. The owner needs to seriously declutter his belongings. It felt as though he had just popped out, which left us feeling most uncomfortable.

The other major problem was that we were unable to use the sitting out area, as you just got covered in green seeds falling from the ivy clad walls, we couldn't eat out there as they would fall into the food. Also if you tried to relax out there in the afternoon it was like trying to sit in a bee hive.

All in all, we felt the property was a little tired, needing some cosmetic improvements, it needs a feminine touch!

In addition we would add that we felt that it was not worth the rental which was charged. In other words it was over priced.

Dear Ms and Mr Smith,

Thank you very much for your review. It always helps to get feedback. I wanted to answer inmediately as it is the first negative feedback we receive in 3 years so I take it very seriously.

I understand the issue of the clothes in the main bedroom, and we apologise. Indeed this is our secondary home, not just a rental home. We use it frequently so our personal objects are around. We make room in the closets for your clothes but understand that it is not enough. We have since solved the problem by adding a set of droors that will remain completely empty for the use of our guests.

Concerning the terrace, the vines add so much to the charm of the house that we do not want to cut them. Unfortunately, you are right, nature takes over during the summer attracting some bees and hopefully some nice birds. They have always been kind to us so I hope they will stay that way.

I hear about the feminine touch. However, since it is just my husband and I living in the house, I am affraid I will not be able to solve that. But I am flattered by the comment.

I am very glad you enjoyed our beautiful town and sincerely thank you for your feedback.

Beautiful apartment for a relaxed getaway in France

We stayed at Roberto’s place for 2 weeks in July and couldn’t have been happier with our choice! The apartment is very spacious, beautifully decorated, and has all the amenities of home. We even took home some design ideas for rejuvenating our own home! The apartment is right near the main square in Roussillon on a quiet street and perfect for walking everywhere in town. We were traveling with our 14 month old baby and Sandra, the property manager, went out of her way to provide us with a nice crib, a high chair, toys, and recommendations to make our stay very comfortable. The kitchen is lovely and well stocked and was perfect for preparing all the great food you can buy at the Roussillon market and other surrounding markets every day. Very highly recommended!!

We wanted a restful vacation away from the city and we found it in Roberto's home. We explored villages during the day and had dinner on the main terrace in the evenings. The house was well-equipped with everything we needed and very comfortable.The village is delightful. We got to know the bakery very well and also every ice cream shop in the village. Thankfully the steep village streets and the active lifestyle helped offset the sweets.
